Could you tell me how you connect the Time Machine to the 40D? Which cable is required? Thanks.

Thank you for the input Tom The second gun is being fired via the master/slave wireless link which will put some delay into the triggering. I’ll be modding the system so both guns are triggered via a wire to see if the timing improves.

(sorry, 30us (microsecnds), not 30 ns.

Two flashes = two exposures… they will not be exactly simultaneous… maybe if you were using the same flashes at the same power and the same triggering system… but when you’re timing things to 30ns (1/30,000th of a sec) you’ve got to expect a bit of jitter from your flashes. At least that would be my expectation, and I do have degree in electrical engineer with some emphasis in control theory… and zero relevent experience
